I also wouldn't stress not having have dated a lot, I know a guy who is 19 and have never been on a date once (with neither a girl or a guy). You still have your whole life ahead of you for that, plus a gf or bf takes a lot of time and commitment. I would focus on my studies and making sure you get a good education. 🙂
Hmm....
I'm only 16 at the moment, I haven't dated many girls so far...
edit: oh, and to be clear, no guys either.
Originally posted by rubberjaw30I really hope that's the real reason you are not asking any girls out, and 'tis not just the fear of rejection. You can't go on the rest of your life being afraid of being rejected. It will get easier asking girls out after you tried it a few times, and you'll get better at it too, trust me. 🙂
but in all honesty, i really don't want a girlfriend...
too much commitment...
i just want to be a badass
Originally posted by rubberjaw30Who cares if you get a college degree? Screw your parents? Geez, you in the world gave you this advice?? I know it sounds very appealing to just "screw" everything in this day and age and do whatever you want but 'tis not a very prudent way to lead a life. I am not saying you should worry your head off aboot the future and not enjoy life right now, but 'tis possible to enjoy life as well as take on a few responsibilities. A college degree is important in order to get a good job, you don't want to spend the rest of your life flipping burgers for a living, do you? And as for the parents, I know they can be real arse holes, especially in teenage eyes, but they are one of the few people you can fully trust in this world. And they are the ones that will always be there for you when things go wrong...
as one wise person once told me whom i have utmost respect for:
"kid, listen. you're sixteen years old. f*** the future, enjoy the now. who cares if you ever get married or get a college degree? it's important that, come what may, you had a hell of a time getting there. screw your parents if they're holding you down. now quit trying to figure it all and ...[text shortened]... id means anything to you... it sure did for me when i was in a deep crap hole of trouble...

he was telling me to relax...
i was a perfectionist at the moment, had to have my whole life figured out, you know?
he was telling me to enjoy it while it was here...
and my life's been a blast ever since...
Originally posted by rubberjaw30Ok...well as long as you're not going to drop or anything... 🙂

Originally posted by rubberjaw30Wow...well I'm really glad you didn't, because if you're going to run away you should learn to play the aquaggaswack, not the guitar.
before he told me that, i was not only going to drop out, but i was going to run away, do drugs, learn the guitar, and live out of a van for a while...
i was pretty much out of it before he helped
Originally posted by rubberjaw30You should have gone. At least you would have something to tell future grand children other than that you wasted your youth writing about you not being gay on an internet chess forum.
